These are the talk shows for Sunday, January 11, 2009:

PREFACE:

Obama went on ABC’s This Week this morning, where he and host George Stephanopoulos demanded a sacrifice. From each and every American. For the common good, says he, The once we’ve appeased them, I suppose they’ll demand a second shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get a two-level effect with a little path running down the middle..

David Gregory, on MTP, killed time with tedious roundtables.

On FNS, Brit Hume interviewed the two Presidents Bush.

On FTN, Dick Durbin said that Roland Burris’s paperwork from the Secretary of State was strange; Burris said that it was fine and that he is the junior Senator from Illinois. John Boehner was confident that there will be no tax increases in Obama’s economic scheme.

And on Late Edition, Dick Cheney said that as a conservative, he would always like to see less government spending, except in wartime and in periods of national crisis.. Up next, Nancy Pelosi blamed Bush and the Republican Congress for last and this years’ huge deficits but promised that she will fix everything.
